The job paid well but the trauma of dealing with the spoiled kids and rude, they-think-they´re-too-rich parents, plus overloaded and too long teaching hours, all killed my love and passion for teaching. After recovering from depression, still working in the same environment, I lived life just as it was, counting the days and always looking forward to weekends and vacations. I started to dream having a work that makes me my own boss. And I prayed a lot for it. <br /><br />After patiently waiting for the right time to retire from teaching, I turned my back from a high paying job which I hate, despite the pleas of my Indian employers. Well, they pleaded for me to stay not because they couldn´t get a good maths teacher, but because they were afraid they couldn´t get a debate trainer who built a strong debate club out from scratch and out of their rascals but talented kids, and made them well known across the country.<br /><br />But I couldn´t be stopped. I was so excited to leave my jon and pursue what I thought would make me so happy - blogging full-time. <br /><br />What I didn´t know was that, while I was shaping a future for my blogging career, the road would be too long and narrow. Never rule out the extremely sad isolation and working until past midnight everyday, without actually getting paid at the end of the month. <br /><br />Sometimes I re-assess if I made the wrong decision to run my back from a mundane, very rountine but safe career to pursue something very fickle and unknown.<br /><br />As of now, I´m already starting to reap the fruits of my hard labor after more than a year. I´m grateful that I no longer work in a robotic environment trying to please a pair of unpleasable bosses. I´m glad that I work on my own terms. But above all, I learned that no matter what you do, no matter where you are, you´ll always feel uncontent. <br /><br />I think we´re all described by that old poem - the road not taken. :)creativefashiongleehttp://creativefashionglee.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2904020480081426344.post-4733335529854169792012-10-10T14:08:01.356-05:002012-10-10T14:08:01.356-05:00I'm on that same hamster wheel.
